So glad that I’m not the only one going “huh, that does read a whole lot like chan-style communication”.

Thank you! Very clarifying. I’m still happy for Bronto, mind you, but that clarifies some of the fascinating cladistics that’s going on in the paleo world. Triceratops, actually just a juvenile ceratosaur? Can’t find the article, but I’ve heard that too. What a time to be alive.
I simply do not believe Fifth Sibylline is here for any honest reasons anymore. I’m going to do a more detailed analysis tomorrow for fun, but the vast majority of their criticisms have been pushing for things that have been strategically opposed to what feminists are tending to do right now, and offer next to nothing in terms of substance on the vast majority of those. Those places where there was an attempt at substance what was offered was pretty shitty.
On top of that when they defended themselves it was very often in a way that would be very advantageous to an anti-feminist. Like removing our ability to use group criticism (absent violent abuse like what ZQ or AS would get) when there is no way anti-feminists would give up their harassment mobs without a fight.
Does anyone else hear quacking?
When what you do is either injurious to feminism or advantageous to anti-feminism your words on beliefs and intent don’t matter for shit.
@Brony, I was counting the same for funsies. I saw “Dear Muslima”, threats, and all sorts of typical GG talking points, too. Was even going to do the same as you will tomorrow, but I’ma be super busy tomorrow in meetings so I will leave it to your talented hand. You’re better at it than me by far, anyways.
Late to the party but congrats on the pronouns. If you don’t mind me asking, is that an issue in Scandinavian languages, or do they by have gender neutral pronouns anyway?
Finnish has, but it is its own language group distinct from Swedish, Norwegian, Danish and Icelandic.

Ooh yeah, Time Cube. Tiiime Cuuube. It’s like a mix of paranoia, superiority complex, inability to accept personal synesthesia as being anything other than objective reality, excessively abstract and abstruse thinking written as a stream-of-thought, and poor understanding what certain words mean. I wasn’t sure whether to laugh at it or pity the author, so I did a little of both.

Ceratopsian, not ceratosaur (ceratosaurs are carnivores), but otherwise, yep! Torosaurus, to be precise. And that’s not even getting into the discovery of protofeathers on Triceratops/Torosaurus’ ancestors… I love my job.

WHAAAA THAT IS AWESOME, FEATHERS!? I had somehow missed that!
You called the dogpile, little Miss “douchenozzel”. And no, douche is fine: shoving a nozzle up there for non-Americans who’ve never had the psychotic culture that suggested that douches exist in the first place, then calling me out as sexist: No. You don’t get to do that.
Yup, that is definitely how a feminist talks, from freaking out over phallic symbols to calling out non-Americans on their privilege to addressing other women as “little miss.” Nailed it.
Imagine: on whatever Gamergate forum this person hangs out on, all that stuff about senators and UN conspiracies and organizations referred to by initials is seen as totally sensible. That’s awesome.
I did a little freelance work for the UN, ages ago. They were nice people.

Shut my eyes for a while and see the troll was eaten to the bone. I think this will keep me for a while, so satisfying.
Also, am I the only one who took FS’ last message as admitting to being a troll? You know, the last excuse of a boring troll being “were you not entertained?”.
That is unless I misunderstood the awesome power of meta they were using (yes I said ‘they’, because I don’t believe a single word I understood of that messy pile of trolling 101, even though they repeatedly said feeeeemale).
Also also:
Um.
Don’t you get the irony of posting The Young One’s memes?
It was also possible that the board was dominated by highly privileged people who weren’t willing to listen.
This seems extremely likely.
@isidior13
Who here claimed to be a left radical?
Well, I am, but I know I’m in the minority on that around here.

Indeed. Fifth channer’s first post (the only one I bothered to read) was full of chanspeak.
(Note, not to ignore others who mention it, I’ve been skimming the thread and am tired.)
@Lagoon
I’m still so confused why they kept bringing chan boards into this. Nothing they wrote made any sense…..
The most likely explanation is that Fifth Shithead is a channer who basically never spends any time anywhere else on the web.

I know this might be a dick thing for me to say, but I love how an article with 22 words in it, including tittle, image caption, and actual article, has managed to produce 298 comments, all because some troll didn’t know when to stop, it’s especially ironic if David makes more money off of these (I think he would because more comments means more clicks and stuff, but I don’t know how these things work), so thanks trolls you’re giving david more money, and thus supporting dah misandry.

Tigers don’t threaten to send misogynists to harass their prey, puddin. They take care of their own business.
You tried.
You ain’t shit.
I’m getting a serious Time Cube vibe from FS.
If you can’t explain to us what the hell you’re talking about in terms that we can understand, that’s a failing on your part.
Oh, man, someone else remembers Time Cube! I was talking about that last week (not here) and nobody else knew what I was referencing.
@Victorious Parasol
I’d rate FS at about 1/3 Time Cube; nearly back to a single sided day, but still not really interacting with reality in a recognizable way.
(ETA: In the scale that I just made up, 1/4 Time Cube is regularly comprehensible speech.)
@Scildfreja
Eh, sorry to burst the bubble, but that was pure media hype based on a flawed study and not actually true.
(Palaeontologists: Ruining everyone’s fun since Jurassic Park.)
@ dlouwe
I accept your scale and agree with your rating.
Am I late am I late?

Bruh, just GO.
